The macro photos in this blog post - "Saturday Afternoon" - were taken with the K7 yesterday - the camera was fresh out of the box. (The first image is IMGP0011...)

I have yet to read the manual, but the K7 worked well in my first round of shooting, using a manual focus A lens and flash setup on a DIY bracket. I did have to turn the flash compensation all the way down (-3 on the AF360FGZ iself, and -2 on the K7 body) to keep the exposure in line. That's different from the K10D which I usually use with only -.5 compensation. FWIW - setting ISO, flash compensation, RAW file selct, etc, was all very intuitive, no consulting the manual required.

It's not apparent in the small web sized images, but the amount of detail -e.g. in the cells in the dragonflys' eyes - is noticeably better than what I got with the K10D.

To all PDMLers who now own the new K-7:

I know it's been a little slow on the list lately, but I wouldn't mind a flurry of photos shot with the new K-7. (Actually, I thought there'd be a flurry already.) Go ahead and show off your new equipment and photos and all the possible crazy shooting schemes :-) you guys can dream up. The more the merrier, in my view.

I'm very keen on the new camera, and, I guess, I'd like to share in "owner excitement" if K-7 owners are willing to create some!

Cheers, Christine
